Chapter 696 Uchiha's Fire Style

"Everyone, don't panic! Stay in formation! Stay in formation!"

Commander Byakugan, with his sharp eyes, spotted the approaching swarm of insects from the horizon, and hurriedly ordered the Konoha ninjas to organize an offensive to prevent these suicide insects from approaching.

Although the camp was set up with a barrier, once it was activated, they became a turtle shell that could only passively defend and could only take beatings without being able to fight back.

Therefore, it is very necessary to prevent the arrival of the swarm of insects.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

At this time, arrogant roars rang out from inside the camp, and ninjas wearing Uchiha clan uniforms rushed out quickly.

As they made seals with their hands.

In an instant, countless blazing flames shot up into the sky like a meteor shower, and the blazing flames instantly obscured the vision of the Konoha ninjas.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

One by one, the Uchiha jonin opened their bright red three-magatama Sharingan. They were all elites with three-magatama Sharingan! They quickly formed seals with their hands, gathered a large amount of chakra in their mouths, and suddenly erupted forward.

The blazing flames surged like a tide.

The snowflakes along the way instantly melted into boiling hot water, and the hard stone slabs were also dyed charred black, sweeping towards the attacking Konoha ninjas like a galloping horse.

In this situation, the suicide flies and the flaming worker ants on their backs were unable to escape the flames and were burned to ashes.

However, some of the fiery worker ants were not completely burned, but turned into a small amount of venom and fell from the air.

It's just extremely difficult to distinguish in the sky.

But soon, many Konoha ninjas were unknowingly covered by the spilled venom, and they screamed in pain. The Konoha ninjas who were contaminated by the venom suffered severe burns and their exposed skin also suffered extensive damage.

In just a few seconds, all their seven orifices began to burn with flames. The flames grew wildly and soon engulfed them completely. Finally, the struggling and rolling fire men turned into a pool of black ash and appeared on the ground.

"Watch out for the raindrops in the sky!"

The Uchiha ninjas who were specially prepared for the self-destructing flies changed their expressions and shouted calmly.

Although most of these Konoha ninjas had been very hostile to the Uchiha before, they were ninjas from the same village after all. If too many of them died, it would be difficult for their "Fly Extermination Team" to report back to the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku.

Accompanied by a sharp eagle cry that broke through the sky.

The earth dragon troops and the swarm of insects in the sky quickly evacuated the battlefield, especially the ten thousand earth dragon troops, who ran faster than rabbits.

If the offensive of the Suicide Flies and the Flaming Worker Ants were blocked and they were surrounded by the Konoha army, they would surely be annihilated.

The battlefield fell silent.

The smoke of battle filled the entire area.

The arthropods scurried across the ground, rushing out of the range of Konoha's ninjutsu at an astonishing speed, stirring up clouds of dust in the woods.

The suicide flies flapped their wings hard, flying higher into the sky at a faster speed, avoiding the fire attacks from below and retreating towards the border of the Fire Country.

......

When Tsunade finished treating the last wounded person and walked out of the tent, it was already bright outside.

Her face was haggard. After not sleeping all night and the continuous chakra output, she felt exhausted despite her physical condition.

"Are you still getting old..."

She smiled bitterly, a bleak look on her face.

"Lady Tsunade, are you done? Great! Come and have breakfast!"

At this time, Shizune came from the direction of the cafeteria with a bowl of steaming curry in her hand. When she saw Tsunade coming out of the tent, her face lit up with joy.

"Just hungry."

Tsunade's eyes lit up, she took it and started devouring it.

However, looking at the miserable Tsunade, Shizune beside her felt a little uncomfortable.

"Lady Tsunade shouldn't have come back to Konoha and suffered this..."

Her eyes were red and she looked away.

But the sky above the camp was still filled with gunpowder smoke, and the smell of blood had not yet completely dissipated, and the breath of death was still strong.

Shizune couldn't help but fall silent.

"Why does there always have to be killings..."

She couldn't understand.

Wouldn’t it be nice for everyone to live a peaceful life?

......

Tsunade patted Shizune's shoulder gently to comfort her.

"Don't worry too much. This is the fate of a ninja! Caught in endless disputes. Before, I was just running away. The same thing happened to Jiraiya..."

In Tsunade's opinion, Shizune was protected too well by her and her mind was still too naive.

Shizune nodded slightly, even though she still didn't quite understand, she still agreed with Tsunade's opinion.

Tsunade drank the last mouthful of soup without wiping the corners of her mouth.

Looking at the gray sky in the distance, he was silent. "After returning empty-handed this time, the people in the Hot Spring Village will surely be restless, right? There might be another fierce battle next! Will Shangguan Mo be provoked to come here in person?"

......

"...Hehe, it seems that Konoha has also made a lot of preparations in secret..."

After receiving Tian Feng's report, Shangguan Mo smiled softly.

"I don't know what Konoha is thinking. They just passively defend and counterattack. It's been a month, and they haven't taken the initiative to cross the border to attack us. This doesn't seem like their style..."

Master Roshi sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands crossed in front of his chest, mumbling. His eyes, shining with golden light, were filled with doubt and confusion.

"What's so strange about that? He's just scared by our beating. How dare he fight back?!"

The golden monkey king also imitated its posture, crossing his arms across his chest like humans, pretending to be in deep thought.

"It's probably because of internal disagreements! Besides, Tengu's performance is quite outstanding! Even if the characteristics of his ability are known, it is still difficult to completely restrain him..."

Shangguan Mo fiddled with the big white dog lying at his feet with great interest, with a smile on his face.

He knew Konoha best and had spies planted there, so he probably knew that Konoha was currently divided into two factions: the pro-war faction and the pro-peace faction.

"Humph, internal discord! This is Konoha's biggest problem!"

The Golden Monkey King hummed softly and leaned against the wall.

Master Roshi closed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and revealed a faint human smile.

If Konoha could wake up, he would not want to cause more killings.

……

Konoha, noon.

In a lounge of the sanatorium, only Sarutobi Hiruzen, Utane Koharu from the advisory group, and Mito Kado En were there at the moment.

Compared to the two advisors who were fidgeting, Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed more casual.

He held the pipe in his hand, taking a puff from time to time, while gazing at the bright day outside the window, and seemed to be thinking about something in his mind.

The invisible party struggle has begun again.

Although the future is uncertain, he is determined to bring Konoha back under the control of his faction!

Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's indifferent expression, the two advisors felt helpless, but they were unable to change the other party's decision.

"Huruzen, do you really have to do this? You'll cause Konoha to split apart!"

......
